NYC TRAFFIC LAW

Can New York State traffic tickets for moving violations (yellow color,
not to be confused with NYC parking tickets) be dismissed on the
basis of illegible or inaccurate information as handwritten by the
police officer?   ie. human error - missing VIN digit, incorrect place
of occurrence
etc.

If so, what constitutes a dismissal?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not an expert in NY law, but as a guideline, the usual standard is
that the error or omission from the ticket must be significant and
material.  So, something like a missing digit from the VIN based on a
human error probably would not be grounds for dismissing a ticket.
However, saying that you were going 55 in a 35 mph zone when it
actually was a 45 mph zone would likely be grounds for dismissal.
